#67 - Stephanie Nadolny Interview (Dragonball Z, Gohan, Voice Acting, L.A., Anti Bullying etc.)

[@gokusuppercut5040]

I love her voice acting, shes seems like such a cool human being. She sold me on young gohan and kid goku when i was a kid. Wish she was still VA them

[@CGJoe]

Amazing interview I’m looking forward to meet her next year 😊

[@sirkingpinmonroe4439]

I grew up with Stephanie as Kid Goku and Gohan. And she knocked it out of the park as KO from OK KO Let’s be Heroes. I wish she came back because she’s my favorite Kid Goku and Gohan

Huge fan! Thanks for the upload!!! Subscribed👍

[@kryonice7695]

awesome video! Stephanie is the fucking best bro

[@keriddunk1520]

Made me a great fan of Stephanie. You are my childhood hero .Now as an adult also look up to you for how you faced your hardships

[@fizzyfuzz5878]

How could they not even tell Stephanie or Linda it sounds like, that they were being replaced? English Dragon Ball has never been the same to me since they were replaced. Bottom line between Stephanie and Collen, Stephanie made Gohan sound much more like a little boy. Some of Collen's delivery totally turns me off and makes my ears bleed.

[@myaaishere]

Well it's not supposed to turn you on either...?

[@mymelancholia]

Agreed, to this day I refuse to watch Kai because I can listen to the new VAs for Gohan and Bulma in that show.

[@Slappy985]

For me its the opposite. I like Colleen as kid Gohan, but not as Kid Goku. Steph cannot be replaced for Goku, and thanks to Dragon Ball Daima Steph is reprising the role finally and hopefully we get to hear more of her in video games featuring Kid Goku.

[@Inuyashaactor03]

You should do a interview with voice actor Saffron Henderson, Who is also the voice of kid Goku and Kid Gohan ❤

[@DariBenny]

I love KO

[@aquamidideluxe5079]

Interesting contrast with the Linda Young interview. Linda came off as a sweet old lady, but Stephanie is still so serious and determined, talking a lot about technique and what she's up to now and what's next. Linda was good as Frieza but Chris was a good recast choice who did an amazing job with the character. Gohan though...Colleen's Gohan isn't bad, but she can be annoying to listen to. Stephanie was great as Gohan!

[@youngcnyce]

She's by far the best Kid Gohan /;Goku while Linda is the best Frieza

[@Vespyr_]

Glad to hear she's back for Daima. Crunchyroll doing the right thing where Funimation would not. Sabat is a creep. Long live Stephanie, the queen. Colleen is already Luffy and a legend. Leave Kid Goku and Gohan to Nadolny.
